If the wind is in your face, you swing too hard just to get the ball through it; if the wind is at your back, you swing too hard just to see how far you can get the ball to go.

Actually, the only time I took out a one iron was to kill a tarantula. And I took a seven to do that.

On courses where the yardages are marked on sprinkler heads:
1. There will be no sprinkler head within 40 yards of your ball.
2. The nearest sprinkler head will be blank.
3. While being examined, the sprinkler head will turn on.

Remember that it only takes a few extra seconds to pick up a wedge left on the green by a group of slower players in front of you and hurl it deep into the woods.

Golf is a game in which the slowest people in the world are in front of you and the fastest are those behind.

The best thing to be said about golf is that it isn't compulsory.
